Soccer--Update...

SHE SCORED! Coach Magoo and the Chicky Magoo Cheerleaders were SO happy to see Chicky Magoo 1's goal! Yea!
Soccer

We have only 2 games left of the soccer season! Chicky Magoo1 is trying her best to score, and I sure hope it happens! Last night we played a make-up game. Since it was a make-up game and on a new night, the other team only had 2 legit players, and one boy who had to suit up because they needed a 3rd to play. I think it was someone's brother. This kid had never played before, and didn't quite get that you couldn't touch the ball. We had all 7 players show up. We really thought this would be a chance for the 5 kids who haven't scored all year, to finally get their shot! (no pun intended) Well- no chance! Chicky Magoo 1 was SO close to scoring, as well as another little boy. The whole crowd was cheering for them. It was fun! She wants to score so badly, that it is all she talks about. Hopefully today!!!!

Random Stats

I went through my stats page and found this:
This month I've had 192 visitors (149 of which were returning)
Last month I had 343 visitors
1/2 of you stay for less than 5 seconds...NICE
1/2 of you stay for longer than an hour...WOW! I didn't know I was so interesting. :P
This month I've had people from France and the UK.

And probably the best statistic I can give you...
When I posted the song "Boobs a Lot" I had the most visitors from search engines.
The New Computer

I have found it pretty interesting to figure this whole Mac thing out. I guess I was so used to what I had, that I'm having trouble getting this new stuff in my brain. Amazing how many of the things I did on the computer were automatic, and now I have to relearn them.

I took this picture at the Zoo about a week ago. It could use some photoshop, but I am still working on all of that.

Isn't It Ironic?'

Mr. Magoo came home early yesterday and handed me a new laptop! My old one had been broken, when the cord was stepped on, and part of it snapped off inside the computer. The person who did this shall remain unnamed, but is almost 2 years old....

I got the new MacBook. Thanks to Hawkins for giving us the heads up it was out! So- I'll be posting a little more often, and actually be able to email people again.

Yes- amazingly we are Mac people? I guess hell is now frozen, because I recall Mr. Magoo saying something about hell freezing over before he owned a Mac!

Visits

We had two sets of visitors this past week. It was a lot of fun seeing everyone. One was Chicky Magoo 1's friend from California. They acted as if they had never left each other. It was amazing to see that the two of them haven't changed at all since they were together two years ago!

In other news, we have made good use out of the new outside furniture we got this past week. It has been a nice place to hang out, while the kids are playing out back. It was a fiasco to get the furniture, but it is finally here.

Lightning Strike

A few nights ago there was a pretty big thunderstorm that rolled through. At 2am, there was almost a simultaneous thunder/lightning strike. Mr. Magoo and I thought it must have been pretty close to our house, but were too tired to really pay too much attention. The next day, thanks to our neighbor who had to point it out to us (Yes we apparently are Mr. and Mrs. Oblivious) the lightning went right through a house down the street.

We all took a walk down to check it out. Amazing! This was a house that was for sale, so my guess is that you can get it for a pretty good price at this point!
